Riverside Cemetery, Historic cemetery in Oshkosh, United States.
Riverside Cemetery is a burial ground in Oshkosh that spreads across 98 acres with tree-lined paths, monuments, and organized sections. The grounds include areas for different religious denominations and a section honoring military veterans.
The city of Oshkosh purchased land in 1855 from Maria Grignon to establish this cemetery as a replacement for an older burial ground. This move reflected the growing needs of the expanding community during the 1800s.
The cemetery reflects multiple religious traditions through its distinct burial sections for different denominations. Visitors can observe how various communities have marked important lives in this shared space.
The cemetery office on Algoma Boulevard can help visitors locate burial sites and answer questions about the grounds. It is helpful to call ahead if you are searching for a specific grave.
A chapel in Romanesque Revival style built in 1920 sits on the grounds and houses two original paintings with religious themes. These artworks were created during the early and mid-twentieth century.
